Yes I have a computer with special software installed that I can create embroidery designs that my sewing machine will sew out. Expensive venture but totally worth it ( $10,000.00 US)as I am able to sew her monogram!! Yes I love Marie Antoinette!

Yeesh. That price tag is like a dagger! The pain!!! I'm cheap. Its rather sad. If I see something that is too expensive I say "Pffft. I can totally make that for a fraction of the price!" even though I can't.

Well, to be frank I'm awful though!When I stitch by hand or machine! I would love to design and sew my own clothes, I'm simply too inept to do so!

Re: You know you love Marie Antoinette when...

Oh Comte de Provence please stop! You just may make me blush with an onslaught compliments! Does your quiver never empty full of the arrows dipped with compliments!?! Alas, I am prudent 'tis all and I am not quite used to getting compliments. What do you mean through "Hellou, Je suis sûr de ce que vous avez fait est très beau!" ? I'm only in the first level of French and I speak it poorly I will admit!

Re: You know you love Marie Antoinette when...
